February 2021
Bluebird Monitor Training Program - Zoom Event on February 24th at 7pm Spring is approaching!! With warmer temps we are happily anticipating the return of many birds to RHP - especially the eastern bluebird! We are offering a Bluebird Monitor Training Program led by bluebird expert Dr. Joe Blanda. Please join us for this 30 minute presentation explaining the role of a bluebird box monitor and how vital it is for perpetuating this species. PLEASE CONTACT the RHP Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer-info@rjrd.org for more information and to help RHP build and maintain a healthy population at the park. It takes the assistance of many willing people to monitor the 15 or so bluebird boxes on the property during the March through August nesting season. |
